The Prime Atlantic Artery of I_95 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Eisenhower with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 13.767 billion Highwaymen are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miami. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Roadworthy economy, worth a remarkable 1,363 trillion tolls a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,025 tolls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Red Cross demand for body bags is rising while sutures go unused, school guidance counselors recommend monastic vows as an alternative to higher education, the government is lending a hand to private industry, and legislators must raise their hands if they want to speak. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. I_95's national animal is the Dasher, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Constructionist.

I_95 is ranked 126,073rd in the world and 6,147th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
